c dynamic allocation of array code example

Example 1: c allocate array

int *array = malloc(10 * sizeof(int));

Example 2: what is the use of malloc in c

In C, the library function malloc is used to allocate a block of memory on the heap. The program accesses this block of memory via a pointer that malloc returns. When the memory is no longer needed, the pointer is passed to free which deallocates the memory so that it can be used for other purposes.
